Question

Please help!

Answer 1

The area to be determined is a segment of the circle.

Since central angle is 120 degrees and 120/360 = 1/3
area of sector of circle is (1/3)*36pi = 12pi
For the area of triangle, you can split it into 2 30-60-90 right triangles with sides 3:3sqrt3:6
thus base of triangle is 6sqrt3 and height is 3

Area = 1/2 * 3* 6sqrt3 = 9sqrt3 -->
segment area = 12pi - 9sqrt3

segment area = 12pi - 9sqrt3

I just did this so I know it's correct.
